Abstract In light of the economic recession in the post‐pandemic era, countries have implemented a wide array of fiscal stimulus measures as a means of addressing the prevailing economic challenges but often neglect to consider the consequences of these stimuli on the environment. Therefore, it is crucial for the government to take environmental considerations into economic stimulus packages, aiming to achieve a sustainable “green recovery.” Using China's value‐added tax (VAT) reform as a quasi‐natural experiment, we find that VAT incentives have significantly improved the firm's energy efficiency through factor substitution and technological progress, indicating that tax incentives are beneficial to economic stimulus and energy saving. In addition, we find that energy market distortions play a significant negative moderating role, which weakens energy efficiency gained from the VAT incentives. Furthermore, heterogeneity analysis shows that the improvement of energy efficiency is concentrated in non‐state, high‐capital intensity, and high financing‐dependent firms. According to our findings, policymakers should have a thorough understanding of the potential of tax incentives for investment as a policy tool for achieving a “green recovery” as long as the energy market is efficient.

Abstract One way inflation affects consumption inequality is through its varying impact on the purchasing power of different households. Indirect taxes, which affect commodity price levels, are another effective factor influencing consumption inequality. Turkey is a highly unequal country with a long history of high inflation. Moreover, indirect taxes have been used frequently as a policy tool in the last decades. This study develops a novel approach to examining the relative contributions of household inflation rates and indirect tax changes to real consumption inequality and applies it to the case of Turkey. The analysis is carried out using both household‐level data and artificial panel data created to apply the Shapley and Owen decomposition methods. The findings roughly can be summarized in two points. First, while nominal consumption during the 2003–2019 period became more equal, real consumption inequality increased as a result of price changes during that time. Variations in household inflation rates are the primary source of increased inequality. Second, changes in indirect taxes account for 31% to 68% of the unequalizing effect of price changes, depending on the method used. Results imply that monetary and indirect tax policy mix have been in favor of the rich in this period.

Abstract Financial inclusion (FI) is critical to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly zero poverty, gender equality, and reduced inequalities, but there is limited evidence of its impacts on household welfare in fragile and post‐conflict countries (FPCCs). This study analyses the impact of FI on household welfare in Liberia using the Liberian Household Income and Expenditure Survey of 2016–2017. For the empirical analysis, we use an inverse probability‐weighted regression adjustment model and separate analyses for male‐headed households (MHHs) and female‐headed households (FHHs) to identify possible gender differences. We find that using mobile money statistically significantly increases household food security for MHHs and FHHs. In particular, the welfare impact is greater for MHHs in terms of food availability, while in relation to food quality and dietary diversity, the impact is greater for FHHs. These findings show the need to scale up FI in FPCCs as a catalyst for improving household welfare.

Abstract The article addresses the need for comprehensive analytical frameworks or perspectives in mobile money research. It also proposes and develops a conceptual framework utilizing classical and neoclassical perspectives. The interdisciplinary nature of mobile money studies and the need for robust analytical frameworks or perspectives pose a significant challenge to researchers, creating a political‐economic gap in analyzing mobile money. In this case, classical and neoclassical mindsets bridge this gap in mobile money analysis. Moreover, the article also addresses the following research question: How have classical and neoclassical perspectives influenced the emergence and growth of mobile money in Tanzania throughout the past 15 years? The argument posits that implementing and dismantling neoliberal policies have facilitated the introduction and advancement of mobile money, drawing upon classical and neoclassical principles. In‐depth, unstructured interviews and content analysis from relevant and scholarly sources have been used as data collection methods. Thematic analysis has also been used for data analysis. The findings indicate that researchers can rely on classical and neoclassical perspectives to analyze mobile money's advent, growth, and consolidation. The implications are that classical and neoclassical perspectives provide a context and a unit of analysis that can be used to study the political‐economic issues of mobile money and other digital financial innovations.

Abstract This paper estimates the effects of mobile payment adoption on household expenditures and people's subjective well‐being. We consider four categories of household expenditures (that on clothes, durable goods, consumer goods, and cultural and leisure activities) and four indicators (life satisfaction, contentment, income satisfaction, and depression) of subjective well‐being. We use the Augmented Inverse Probability Weighting estimator to analyze the 2017 Chinese General Social Survey data while accounting for the selection bias inherent in mobile payment adoption. The empirical results show that people's decisions to adopt mobile payment are positively associated with their educational levels, car ownership, social interaction, internet penetration rate, and residential location. Mobile payment adoption significantly increases household expenditures on consumer goods and cultural and leisure activities but not on expenditures on clothes and durable goods. Moreover, mobile payment adoption significantly decreases people's contentment while increasing depression. We also find that mobile payment adoption significantly decreases the contentment of urban people but significantly increases the depression of rural people.

Abstract We develop a theoretical model to analyze the impact of economic openness and financial bias (i.e., open sector bias and urban area bias) on the urban–rural income gap. Our theoretical model puts forth three propositions, which we empirically test using a dynamic panel data model. We use data from 30 provinces in China spanning from 2004 to 2017 for our empirical analysis. Our results reveal a U‐shaped relationship between the urban–rural income gap and the level of regional economic openness. We also find an inverted U‐shaped relationship between the urban–rural income gap and the open sector bias of regional financial development. Moreover, our analysis indicates a positive relationship between the urban–rural income gap and urban area bias in regional financial development. These three propositions hold true for both nominal and real measures of the income gap.

Abstract Poor access to finance remains one of the key challenges faced by households and businesses in The Gambia in the face of an underdeveloped financial market. Yet, women and the youth are further disadvantaged as they are reported to face peculiar challenges in finance access, in spite of efforts taken by different stakeholders, including the government. Therefore, this study examines the impacts of various forms of finance on welfare for these marginalized groups by supporting quantitative analyses of the Integrated Household Survey data with some qualitative information. Adopting Lokshin and Sajaia's (2004) endogenous regime switching estimator, due to the nonrandomness of access to finance, the study finds that women households significantly benefit from informal finance through improved food consumption expenditure, and from formal finance through improved income amidst a growing business culture. For the youth, estimates of treatment effects show that informal finance is significantly welfare‐degrading, but formal finance improves almost all measures of welfare. The results reveal, among other things, variations in efficiency and risk attitudes in the use of various forms of finance by the different subpopulations, calling for interventions that increase the level of knowledge and consumer protection.

Abstract It is essential for sustainable economic development to comprehend how environmental factors impact public health. This study analyses this relationship in the context of Pakistan using long‐term data. This study aims to determine how environmental factors influence health production function in Pakistan to enlighten policy decisions that can improve human life and advance the cause of sustainable development. We hypothesize, based on prior research, that urbanization and rainfall will increase life expectancy in Pakistan, while deforestation, temperature, and CO 2 emissions will decrease it. To verify our theory, we use the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) method to calculate the long‐run association between the variables, as well as the Zivot–Andrews and Lee–Strazicich unit root tests to identify structural breaks. Utilizing the bound and Gregory–Hansen co‐integration tests, co‐integration is confirmed. According to ARDL estimates, there are statistically significant correlations between factors that affect Pakistan's life expectancy, such as deforestation, temperature, and CO 2 emissions, as well as rainfall and urbanization. The findings of this study underscore the importance of addressing environmental degradation and deforestation in Pakistan. For enhancing human life and achieving sustainable development objectives in the nation, it is essential to modernize forest laws and regulations and adopt eco‐friendly technologies.

This study examines the long‐term impacts of early coal mining on human capital outcomes. Based on coal mines across 260 prefectures in late Qing China (c.1840–1912), we find that early coal mining led to a significant rise in schooling years in 2000. We trace the historical channels and show that the influence of early coal mining has persisted through and helped shape the modernization of China, which includes local industrialization and a complimentary supply of educational infrastructure. These results suggest that in contrast to other grabbing mineral extraction, inclusive coal mining systems benefit long‐term human capital accumulation and economic growth, not mining activity per se.
